| Hawkwind | But you need to enable multiverse and stuff like that | 06:12 |
| intelikey | if it doesn't work show me the error. | 06:12 |
| Hawkwind | !multiverse | 06:12 |
| ubotu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource | 06:12 |
| posthuman | then 'fetch updates' | 06:12 |
| intelikey | only the error. | 06:12 |
| Healot | here dog, fetch! | 06:12 |
| abattoir | sceptre: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu might be a bit more useful :) | 06:12 |
| sceptre | how do you enable multiverse? | 06:12 |
| posthuman | just as I said above | 06:13 |
| posthuman | lol | 06:13 |
| sceptre | ah | 06:13 |
| sceptre | sorry | 06:13 |
| posthuman | ohh | 06:13 |
| posthuman | right click + enable | 06:13 |
| posthuman | heh | 06:13 |
| posthuman | just find it in the list | 06:13 |
| Hawkwind | sceptre: Read the URL above that ubotu posted | 06:13 |
| intelikey | add the word "multiverse" to the end of the line in file /etc/apt/suorces.list | 06:14 |
| Healot | enabling sections in repos is as simple as appending "universe multiverse" at each and every repos entry in /etc/apt/sources.list | 06:14 |
| intelikey | like this; deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main restricted universe multiverse | 06:15 |

| abattoir | till either restricted drivers are provided for the current one, or till a new one comes out :) | 08:29 |

| unix_infidel | pperez: i dont doubt that you dont...i was throwing it in there just for kicks. | 08:31 |
| pperez | I am not trying to have the definition of the ABI acronym, I want to know how to create the /boot/abi-* files | 08:31 |
| pperez | thanks unix_infidel, did you check your /boot to see if you do have these type of files? | 08:32 |
| unix_infidel | pperez: sure i do...otherwise it wouldnt work correctly. | 08:32 |
| unix_infidel | i'm not sure how you intend to create the files though. | 08:32 |
| === Lichte [n=lichte@unaffiliated/klementas] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] | ||
| unix_infidel | i always thought those were created when you compile the kernel. | 08:32 |
| unix_infidel | or extracted into /boot when you installed the kernel binary. | 08:32 |
| pperez | you do not need /boot/abi-* files to have a linux machine boot unix_infidel | 08:33 |
| pperez | There are there for other reasons | 08:33 |
| unix_infidel | right, eg when specific libraries are needed by another OS. | 08:33 |

| Jack1 | <Ash-Fox> i have read that thx | 01:27 |
| fred | jack1: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/amarok-1.4.php to get amarok 1.4 pacakge | 01:27 |
| Jack1 | fred with wget? and then compile or how? | 01:28 |
| fred | nope this is a web page, you go there and it explain you how to get amarok 1.4 pacakge | 01:28 |
| Lynoure | It seems my Amarok refuses to play mp3s from a usb drive, but shows them fine... and playes other mp3s. Kaffeine will play these from the usb stick just fine... | 01:29 |
| Lynoure | Is there anything I can do to fix this? | 01:29 |
| fred | Lynoure: have you tried to put another audio format in the usb drive to see if amarok can play them ? | 01:30 |
| imbrandon | Lynoure, or use the usb drive as a "media device" in amarok | 01:30 |
| Jack1 | deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/amarok-141 dapper main fred do i hvae to add this to the apt sources list? | 01:31 |
| Lynoure | fred: no, but if I copy the mp3 to hard disk, amarok plays them fine | 01:31 |
| Lynoure | imbrandon: I'll try that, sounds promising :) | 01:31 |
| fred | Lynoure: so as imbrandon suggessted it is likely a drive issue, more than a format one | 01:31 |
| fred | Jack1: the web page say 'amarok-14' | 01:32 |
| fred | Jack1: i dunno if there is a 'amarok-141' in the url | 01:32 |
| Lynoure | fred: but on the other hand kaffeine does play them straight from the stick... | 01:33 |

| imbrandon | Lynoure, amarok handels remote ( usb is seen as remote ) drives a bit diffrent to accomifdate for iPods and such but that makes usb drives have to use that interface also ;( but all in all it should work | 01:38 |
| Lynoure | fred: luckily/unfortunately the world is stull of fascinating things to explore. | 01:38 |
| Lynoure | imbrandon: Thanks to your advice, I'm now happily nodding to Seabound's Hooked :) | 01:39 |
| imbrandon | Jack1, also while your in your sources.list add another line for "kde-latest" too it will update you to kde 353 and you will be much happier | 01:40 |
| imbrandon | fred ^^ | 01:40 |
| imbrandon | Jack1, its signed by the same key so you only have to add the additional line | 01:40 |
| Jack1 | imbrandon just kde-latest without anything else?? | 01:41 |
| imbrandon | no no | 01:41 |
| === Hobbsee [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| imbrandon | make it the same as the amarok line just subsitue the word amarok for kde | 01:41 |
| fred | imbrandon: http://kubuntu.org/packages/amarok-lastest or kde-latest things .. this is a generic mechanism which work for any package or are they hardcoded ? | 01:41 |
| imbrandon | in other words like " deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde-latest dapper main " | 01:41 |
| Jack1 | imbrandon and then how to upgrade amarok? | 01:42 |
| imbrandon | fred, only ones me or Ridd*ell or Hobbsee package up and backport , atm kde-latest , amarok-latest and koffice-latest are the only choices | 01:42 |

| Jack1 | i c | 03:37 |
| cox377 | right, this is how far i've got | 03:37 |
| imbrandon | 141 uses libvis0.4 BUT its not in dapper atm so we buildt with 0.2 i know the issues | 03:37 |
| cox377 | install the river athfmwdl.inf | 03:38 |
| cox377 | and it says installed and hardware present | 03:38 |
| imbrandon | Jack1, hold on one moment | 03:38 |
| cox377 | i tried installing the wg111t.inf and it said hardware was not present | 03:38 |
| cox377 | so i'm assuming the athfmwdl is the one of choice | 03:38 |
| Jack1 | so i get the 0.4 and dismiss the xmms-config? sure imbrandon+ | 03:38 |

| LjL | cox377: first, make sure it's really not there (i.e. not in a repository that you didn't enable) | 04:08 |
| LjL | !packages | 04:08 |
| ubotu | You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, apt-cache, the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 18000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 04:08 |

| mustech | this is what happens when i try to install or remove any thing | 04:20 |
| mustech | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18153 | 04:20 |
| LjL | mustech: ok i'm not familiar with Adept, could you try installing the same package using apt-get? "sudo apt-get install <packagename>" | 04:21 |
| rysiek|pl | imbrandon_: that didn't quite solve it, though; when I de-select "Unmounted CDRoms" and such - I just get no cd/dvd icons whatsoever, even though I have "Mounted CDRoms" and "Audio CD's", etc., still selected. Whatismore, when I plug-in my mp3-player (via USB), the icon does not show either, regardless of all the settings in that tab that might concern it. | 04:21 |
| larson9999 | LjL: i don't know. i'm knew to ubuntu and am just trying to get a feel if i should wait for packages to hit the repos or build my own. in the mandrake world there were packages of just about everything i wanted almost as soon as it came out. | 04:21 |
| mustech | i'll try | 04:21 |
| h3sp4wn | larson9999: Mandriva cooker is more upto date than edgy at the moment isn't it ? | 04:22 |
| abattoir | rosa: hello. problem solved? | 04:22 |
| LjL | larson9999: not the same here, i don't think. you really mostly have to wait for the next ubuntu version (due to October), except for things that get into the backports. and things that do are usually relatively "small" packages with few dependencies | 04:22 |
| Hawkwind | He's not referring to cooker though | 04:22 |
| larson9999 | h3sp4wn: likely. but i'm not sure. i didn't use cooker. | 04:22 |
| larson9999 | Hawkwind: you always think you know what i mean. | 04:23 |
| larson9999 | Hawkwind: and it so happens you do :) | 04:23 |
| LjL | larson9999: on the other hand, if you want to see such a "small" package in the Backports repos, asking for it in the appropriate forum will probably get it added -- i mean, after Backports opens at any rate | 04:23 |

| jim__ | i have tried to the automatic package and it says it is not there | 11:51 |
| LjL-Windows | larson9999: a *quick* look at the makefile shows there is only one "chmod" command in it, which does not remove permissions from /. so it feels more like checkinstall was the culprit. but blah | 11:51 |
| Old_Fred | youn need to activate the unsupported repositories | 11:51 |
| gatekeeper | jennifer71: yes I would try to find a solution eth1 problem. If you are getting nowhere with your question here you could try the ubuntu forums, personally speaking, I would probable be tempted to go and spend 20 - 25 on a nice wireless card that had linux drivers, (but that's me) | 11:52 |
| JRH3K5 | ^^ http://www.ubuntuguide.org/wiki/ | 11:52 |
| jim__ | i did activate the unsupported repositories | 11:52 |
| larson9999 | h3sp4wn: aha so you're making packages? cool | 11:52 |
| Old_Fred | how many packages do you have showing as availiable? | 11:52 |
| gatekeeper | oops she'e gone | 11:52 |
| LjL-Windows | jim__: run "sudo apt-get update" | 11:52 |
| larson9999 | yeah there are vlc packages | 11:53 |
| JRH3K5 | And then apt-cache search vlc | 11:53 |
| Old_Fred | make sure you have the universal resporties activated | 11:53 |
| jim__ | it comes up command not found | 11:53 |
| larson9999 | yeah, anytime i buy hw these days i look for supported stuff. acutally, im' turning down non supported stuff that's given to me :) | 11:54 |
| JRH3K5 | ...apt-get isn't a command? | 11:54 |

| omeow | Why don't you guys tell him to use adept for installing software? Why immediately jump to the terminal? | 11:55 |
| jim__ | when i ran sudo apt cache search vlc a whole bunch of code came up now waht | 11:55 |
| === h3sp4wn [n=samw@unaffiliated/h3sp4wn] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| larson9999 | omeow: well, the terminal is faster for one. | 11:55 |
| sdlnxgk | was just at the beach in San Diego and it was really nice :) | 11:55 |
| Old_Fred | very good point... you are going to get confused mixing both methods | 11:56 |
| h3sp4wn | LjL-Windows: checkinstall will always be the culprit | 11:56 |
| === ubuntu_ [n=ubuntu@82.247.156.212] has joined #kubuntu | ||
| JRH3K5 | Look for a package that's probably named just "vlc" | 11:56 |
| omeow | Yes, but he's a new user who obviously doesn't quite know how to use a terminal, let alone apt-get, etc. | 11:56 |
| larson9999 | omeow: but i think adept is easier to add packages. | 11:56 |
| LjL-Windows | jim__: what if you just type "sudo aptitude install vlc" | 11:56 |
| === ubuntu_ [n=ubuntu@82.247.156.212] has left #kubuntu ["Konversation] | ||
| JRH3K5 | That should work | 11:56 |
| JRH3K5 | "sudo apt-get install vlc" | 11:56 |
| JRH3K5 | Though, what's wrong with Xine? | 11:57 |
| h3sp4wn | larson9999: #kubuntu-devel maybe able to help me actually | 11:57 |
| omeow | jim__, here's the trick; click the k-menu, then select Add/Remove software. Enter your password and type vlc in the search input field. | 11:57 |
| larson9999 | omeow: that's a question i always struggle with. i hate to see linux users afraid of the cli. at the same time i don't like long time users who think you have to do EVERYTHING at the cli. | 11:57 |
| omeow | Then select the dropbox next to it and set it to "any suite" hen check "unsupported" and vlc comes up. | 11:57 |
| jim__ | i am using gnome how do i get to kde | 11:57 |
| Old_Fred | guys, jim's problem swwms to be that he doesn't have the repositories activated... it is there I installed vlc thru adept myself | 11:58 |
| larson9999 | omeow: i think one reason is too, that there are different guis. with the cli, it's the same for all. | 11:58 |
| DarkAudit | CVE-2006-3626 is the h00lyshit exploit... any word on if the current 2.6.16-26 kernel is safe or not? | 11:58 |
| LjL | omeow: and *that's* easier than "sudo aptitude install vlc"? :D | 11:58 |
| omeow | jim__, oh I didn't know you were using gnome. Can't help you much then, there's a graphical client for apt-get there too. Synaptics? | 11:58 |
| omeow | LjL, yes, because it doesn't spill out all kinds of cryptic error messages. | 11:59 |
| jim__ | so how do i install or use kde | 11:59 |
| JRH3K5 | jim__: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_dapper#How_to_add_extra_repositories | 11:59 |
| JRH3K5 | Are you using those repositories? | 11:59 |
| larson9999 | omeow: there you go. we'd be telling him how to use adept. he doesnt' have it :) | 11:59 |
| LjL | err, i've seen adept spilling out error messages that are much *more* cryptic | 11:59 |
| omeow | jim__, you would need to install kubuntu-desktop I believe. | 11:59 |
| Old_Fred | synaptics is almost the same as adept | 11:59 |
| larson9999 | omeow: but plenty of us know both. | 11:59 |
| jim__ | thank you will do | 11:59 |

| LjL | Synaptic | 11:59 |
| LjL | and, well, Synaptic is quite different from Adept really | 12:00 |
| larson9999 | Old_Fred: adding the repositories was different. and i think that a different looking gui can be harder for a newbie that a consistant cli. but that's just me. | 12:00 |
| omeow | Can't say, never used it. | 12:00 |
| Old_Fred | point taken... :-) | 12:00 |

| Old_Fred | speaking of repositories, how can I get the kubuntu packages to show up in adept? the new amorok, etc. | 12:06 |
| larson9999 | Old_Fred: you mean update the repositories? | 12:06 |
| gatekeeper | larson9999: doesn't seem to be any sound with these ScreenKasts, don't know if there is supposed to be, and the idea of using a piece of software that is in early development seems to be a little flawed | 12:07 |
| Old_Fred | yes.... kubuntu.org/packages | 12:07 |
